From a community perspective, this gives us a physical home where we can lay a foundation and grow further. We’ve grown this year from 4 active members to about 15, and while we are spread out across the country it is useful to have a place where people can drop in any time to work. It is also great for events. The desk space is small, but if we grow locally and more people come in to work, I see that as a good problem to have and we’ll scale up.

From a personal perspective, it gives me a chance to get out of my home office and get social and collaborative. Not only will there be Mozillians there, but folks working on many other projects in the the local and global tech scene.
